that on the next Maharashtra Day, a North Indian auto driver will sing the Maharashtra state song with everyone."Uttar Bharatiya Sangh President Santosh RN Singh said, "We North Indians have received respect and employment in Maharashtra. We cannot repay that debt, but the North Indian Association is playing a role in making women self-reliant."

'Jai Maharashtra' is not just a slogan, but a feeling from the heart." Today's event is to express gratitude on behalf of all North Indians to our brothers and sisters in Maharashtra.
